The closest thing I came across was this, pretty cool, well i think so. http://youtu.be/dYYqOE2Xsgw I wonder how much they paid Kermit to do the interview? lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind regards, Stix Thanks Stix, ive done a bit of wall papering the other night, my roof tiles have turned up so hopefully a bit of roofing over the weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 With the weather being good, I've thought I would get on with the roofing. The tiles are from juweela 1:35 roofing tiles, they are plastic and come with 532 tiles and 28 edging tiles. To do the other side I will need to buy another pack. Not sure why my pictures have turned out like this? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) With zoom on () I can see you were making great progress! Have you had chance to do any more since the end of April? Kind regards, Stix Edited May 14, 2017 by PlaStix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I will get around to getting them before the end of May. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badder Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Hi Ozzy, Looking good. Have you thought about constructing a section of tiled roof then making a latex mould and taking casts from it? It would save you time and money in the long run. (Should you ever make any more buildings with roofs, anyway) Rearguards, Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully some time next month when I've got down to hobbycraft or got around to ordering of the net. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 Not a build update, more of a hardware update. I ordered some more roof tiles last week, I also picked up a Tasca Sherman M4A1 yesterday at the Salisbury show and orded a set of T 49 tracks by Bronco. I couldn't find the grizzly tracks in plastic as used on the Sherman in the episode, I may make a start on the Sherman this evening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badder Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Shermans aren't my favourite tanks 'looks wise', but they are certainly fun and easy to build with much fewer wheels/wheel parts to clean up, glue together and paint than those of their opponents! Have fun! Rearguards Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I built there VC kit years ago, it went together really well so should have no problems with this kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted July 2, 2017 Author Share Posted July 2, 2017 With the sun shining, I thought I would do a little out door modelling. I finished off the other roof side, it's looking very homely, I also picked up this mini art set of furniture. I've also switched to postimage to put my pictures through so here goes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badder Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Lookin' good in the sun. I was thinking about getting that MiniArt set but I was worried about the accuracy of the scale. It will be interesting to see how it matches up with some figures. Still very angry over Photobucket. I suspect other such companies will follow suit so I'm backing everything up on a stick now. (A 2ft length of Hazel if you must know) Rearguards, Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what yo mean about the PB state of affairs, all that reference lost I hadn't even used my free amount. However using postimage it seems an easier way of doing business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
